Teacher-Guided Pseudo Supervision and Cross-Modal Alignment for Audio-Visual Video Parsing
Weakly-supervised audio-visual video parsing (AVVP) seeks to detect audible, visible, and audio-visual events without temporal annotations. Previous work has emphasized refining global predictions through contrastive or collaborative learning, but neglected stable segment-level supervision and class-aware cross-modal alignment. To address this, we propose two strategies: (1) an exponential moving average (EMA)-guided pseudo supervision framework that generates reliable segment-level masks via a…

I’m using Claude-code to get stuff done that I couldn’t have done before. I just spent a non-frustrating hour or so successfully changing a system written mostly in typescript (which I’ve never used) to do a bunch of things differently. I’m telling it what I want the system to do (with BDD tests where possible) and it’s figuring out the code changes. Several days work for a human, weeks if I had to find someone to do it for me. Like this:

Compute as Teacher: Turning Inference Compute Into Reference-Free Supervision
Where do learning signals come from when there is no ground truth in post-training? We propose turning exploration into supervision through Compute as Teacher (CaT), which converts the model's own exploration at inference-time into reference-free supervision by synthesizing a single reference from a group of parallel rollouts and then optimizing toward it. Concretely, the current policy produces a group of rollouts; a frozen anchor (the initial policy) reconciles omissions and contradictions to…

A team of scientists discovered a hidden antibiotic 100 times stronger than existing drugs against deadly superbugs like MRSA.
The molecule had been overlooked for decades in a familiar bacterium.
It shows no signs of resistance so far, offering hope in the fight against drug-resistant infections and paving the way for new approaches to antibiotic discovery.

Semi-MoE: Mixture-of-Experts meets Semi-Supervised Histopathology Segmentation
Semi-supervised learning has been employed to alleviate the need for extensive labeled data for histopathology image segmentation, but existing methods struggle with noisy pseudo-labels due to ambiguous gland boundaries and morphological misclassification. This paper introduces Semi-MOE, to the best of our knowledge, the first multi-task Mixture-of-Experts framework for semi-supervised histopathology image segmentation. Our approach leverages three specialized expert networks: A main segmentati…
